That means that I&#39;ve been following you for longer than that as I was so excited when you set up shop there and have bought one of your painted trays.<br /><br />I&#39;m inspired by many things including blogs like yours but when I&#39;m looking for new design ideas, I always turn to beautiful flowers for inspiration.<br /><br />Keep up the good work! xTheahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17347500412731766502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1183726542237592778.post-23852100512469188732012-01-22T02:56:52.446+10:002012-01-22T02:56:52.446+10:00What a fun look back!

I love walking in the the Antique Centre and looking right down the end of the aisle at your pretty things waiting to be discovered. <br />And yes, I live locally and would love that sweet little table to find a home at my house :) <br />Hayley.MumLittlehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00162116284581213350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1183726542237592778.post-25486704320882671242012-01-21T19:31:03.691+10:002012-01-21T19:31:03.691+10:00Gosh! Look at all your beautiful work!<br /><br />What inspires me? Well, to get out of bed each morning it&#39;s thinking of those children that I work with, how hard life can be for them and what can I do to help them.<br /><br />If it&#39;s to do things around the house, it&#39;s sites like yours, full of beautiful images to motivate me.<br /><br />TDM xxThe Distressed Motherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14878371211708477939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1183726542237592778.post-46370270797256097372012-01-21T18:51:38.136+10:002012-01-21T18:51:38.136+10:00Hi Sandy, I live in Victoria so I won&#39;t be able to enter but I just wanted to tell you that I am so inspired by you. I&#39;ve always loved making over old furniture and crafting, but only took it up again last year as a way of recovering from a personal crisis. I&#39;m really hoping to be able to do what you are store with your store space somewhere here in Melbourne. Anyone that has a passion and has the courage to follow it through is an inspiration to all. All the best for the new year.<br />Cheers HelenHelen@mypetittrianonhttp://mypettrianon.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1183726542237592778.post-56092692067187677362012-01-21T18:21:13.104+10:002012-01-21T18:21:13.104+10:00What a lovely giveaway Sandy! Congratulations on having the shop space for a year now - oh how time flies.

What inspires me is Summer time, the beach and our warm queensland weather. My other biggest inspiration would be my grandmother, her determination and sense of humour and the bloggers that I follow daily such as yourself. Its nice to connect with others that are passionate and share interests. xox SanchiaSanchiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16780237451671744718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1183726542237592778.post-80062596318060416592012-01-21T16:05:24.454+10:002012-01-21T16:05:24.454+10:00I am inspired by fabric,its texture,colors,design on it...<br />and by my fellow bloggers friends.<br />I have always known, that there is a lot of talented people, but now I am honored to be among them...<br /> That includes You Dear sandy !<br />Hugs from Florida !Alinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12175118240520630680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1183726542237592778.post-26298514076853984432012-01-21T12:57:00.849+10:002012-01-21T12:57:00.849+10:00As she lives in Brisbane I could always gift it to my daughter in law for her birthday!!!<br />When I eventually get there for a visit my first stop will be Woolloongabba!Juliennehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12951295463270151861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1183726542237592778.post-32936255970957095112012-01-21T12:53:04.185+10:002012-01-21T12:53:04.185+10:00Well I am in the mid states so can&#39;t win anything....but wanted to tell you what inspires me.<br /><br />Beautiful blog pictures and tutorials.<br /><br />They inspire me to TRY - or at least lie in bed dreaming I may one day try.......<br /><br />I absolutely positively want to pretty up furniture in the strongest way, I cannot even explain how much I want to do this.<br /><br />I hope to try it soon.<br /><br />One tiny project at a time I would like to paint things white and make them fabulously shabby and wonderful.<br /><br />YOUR blog is a true inspiration.<br /><br />Keep up the good work, I sure enjoy seeing your creations!<br /><br />Send that warm weather here please, we&#39;re under a siege of snow and ice right now here!!!!<br /><br />Have a fabo weekend!Michele @ The Nest at Finch Resthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08971943265328093734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1183726542237592778.post-50014142282047997682012-01-21T11:15:00.895+10:002012-01-21T11:15:00.895+10:00i would love to be entered for that sweet little table!<br /><br />as you know Sandy, you were the one that got my started many years ago!<br />much of my inspiration comes from your blog as well as the many gorgeous blogs i follow. i get so much from seeing how others paint up finds and decorate their houses. <br /><br />i also look forward to receiving my homey magazines via subscription and am always inspired by the DIY projects and thrifting type house decor.<br />all the best for a fabulous 2012 Sandy!<br />Kate xKate Lewis-Driverhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00021844588740986830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1183726542237592778.post-68064221800207427182012-01-21T11:02:39.972+10:002012-01-21T11:02:39.972+10:00Love that mosiac of all your work for the year--makes me tired too!Shabby chic Sandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07823848210658888319noreply@blogger.com
